At Dying Matters, we believe that conversations start in communities. There isn’t a one size fits all approach to starting conversations about death and grief, and different things work in different places.

Sparking conversations

Text

The Dying Matters Community Grants Programme funds new and creative ways to spark those important conversations in communities across the UK. The grant programme focusses on working with people who we know are least likely to have already had access to existing models of support.

Applications for the latest funding round are now closed. Find further details here.

From oral poetry workshops and video game worlds, to public art installations or song writing sessions – whatever your idea, we want to hear from you.
